When it comes to debating ideas the supporters of big-government/Communism/Socialism has lost the battle long back. In modern times I see that these people have changed skins and they are not talking about "inequality" and "environment" as tools to counter mostly free market enterprise and small government arguments. Eventually it all boils down to which policy would fetch more votes. Number of unproductive freeloaders in American society is probably increasing, there is tendency to look down upon the legal temporary job seekers in USA as job thieves depriving Americans of their jobs and we are told to be compassionate about the illegal migrants. The vote bank in favor of taxing the productive and paying the unproductive is increasing at a rapid pace. Yes, it will bring equality where everyone will be poorer and no hope for future. (Note: Big ships take longer to sink, I have no doubt USA will continue to be a leader over next 20 years or so but the decline after that will be catastrophic).
